Sweet. What are your plans for it? Thinking about picking up a 400. Already have a 4b set up as a Pihole.

You feel like you got a star in Super Mario?
Just received my first dose of the vaccine. So that's definitely my favorite Christmas present this year.
I'm disheartened to see the vaccination rates lagging far behind the initial schedule. Here's hoping we'll see a dramatic ramp up in the next month.
Happy New Year, folks.
Does the vaccine help people who already have covid?
FACT: People who have gotten sick with COVID-19 may still benefit from getting vaccinated
Due to the severe health risks associated with COVID-19 and the fact that re-infection with COVID-19 is possible, people may be advised to get a COVID-19 vaccine even if they have been sick with COVID-19 before.
At this time, experts do not know how long someone is protected from getting sick again after recovering from COVID-19. The immunity someone gains from having an infection, called natural immunity, varies from person to person. Some early evidence suggests natural immunity may not last very long.
We won’t know how long immunity produced by vaccination lasts until we have a vaccine and more data on how well it works.
Both natural immunity and vaccine-induced immunity are important aspects of COVID-19 that experts are trying to learn more about, and CDC will keep the public informed as new evidence becomes available.
Sorry if it was previously stated, but which vaccine did you get @Bench ? Pfizer? Moderna? Just curious in relation to your comments about side effects and the news on reactions for those with allergies.
As an aside for anyone curious about side effects and what to expect, I had some injection site soreness yesterday, minor muscle aches, and today I'm feeling slightly worn out. All symptoms of the immune system working hard. But ultimately that's it. Very minor symptoms and I expect I'll feel back to 100% tomorrow.
I was thinking more of if you are presently sick with covid does the vaccine help cure it
That's never how any vaccine has ever worked.
Basically vaccines in a lay explanation are one of two things (wildly simplified, of course)
1) A dormant load of the virus that will not get you sick but will allow your immune system to train fighting against it. So the next time you get whatever the vaccine is for, your WBCs say "I know this mother f***er, he's a little bitch.
2) COVID's vaccine is more like "a scouting plan" on the virus. They don't use dormant SARS COV-2, but more little RNA instructions that say "those things are going to use those big spikes on their outsides to try to puncture your cell. So don't let that happen and you're good." Most of the vaccines are focused on the protein spikes. Kind of like why the flying V would never work in hockey. You blast the guy in front and it all collapses.

So, I just found out how dependant I am on my cell phone.
Conveniently, my old phone completely crapped out in the afternoon on NYE. Everything was closed yesterday, so couldn't get a new one til today.
Spent the past couple hours trying to remember passwords that somehow didn't get saved when I transfered my SIM card.
You should look into keepass for password management.
I've used 1Password for years. Not sure what you're running but it seems better on iOS/Mac than Windows FWIW.Yea, I was thinking that yesterday. Lol Not specifically Keepass, but just some kind of password manager.
I knew one of these days auto saving everything would bite me in the ass.
